Simple Cocoa Card

 

 

 

This Cocoa card is very simple and would make perfect co-worker or student gifts! Probably not a candidate to mail unless slipped into a larger package

.

 I used a standard 5 1/2 X 4 1/4 card base.  Score and fold in half.  Cut a piece of Designer paper

5 1/4 X 4.  Fold down the corner as shown and crease.  Cut your piece of designer paper to fit at an angle. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I flipped my piece to show both sides!  Using White Craft ink and White Embossing powder, I stamped the steam from Sentsational Season on the top piece of Designer paper.  Adhere both pieces of the designer paper to your card.  Use Sticky strip and line the bottom and side of your card to the point of the fold. 

 

Make sure your side piece does not extend past your fold, or you will have a sticky situation!  =)  Remove the protective covering and stick down!  This creates a cozy pouch for your cocoa.  Standard sizes cocoa fits as well as Land O Lakes taller packages. 

 

Take a scrap of Cherry Cobbler and stamp the cocoa cup from Scentsational Season with White Craft Ink and emboss with White embossing powder.  Cut out the cup using Holiday Collection Framelits and punch a hole in the handle.  I then gathered a scrap of Cherry Cobbler tulle and tied it to the handle with Cherry Cobbler bakers twine.  A mini candy cane would look cute here also, but I forgot to buy those!!  Pop your cup up with Stampin' dimensionals and line it up with your steam.  I then added a Basic Rhinestone Jewel for some bling!
